plus, the max impeller speed on a vortech v3si is 52k RPM, and ESS used 16psi to get to 600rwhp on a low compression engine. Which is what is scary to me, considering that I'd be near max impeller speed on stock internals
Also, I realized that going catless in section one DECREASED my peak boost. After some research, it appears that the more efficient your engine is at breathing, the less boost you'll read on your gauge because your engine will be using that up, versus being backed up in the gauge.

What cranks are you comparing?
Also, since its more efficient, you should be able to safely run more boost.
